Statistics Canada reported on Friday that the Canadian retail sales edged down 0.1 percent m-o-m to CAD50.35 billion in December, following an unrevised 0.9 percent m-o-m drop in November.
The result exceeded economists’ forecast, suggesting a 0.3 percent m-o-m drop for December.
According to the report, sales fell in 7 of 11 subsectors.
The December drop was primarily attributable to lower sales at gasoline stations (-3.6 percent m-o-m) and electronics and appliance stores (-4.0 percent m-o-m), which however were partly offset by higher sales at motor vehicle and parts dealers (+1.0 percent m-o-m), food and beverage stores (+0.9 percent m-o-m) and building material and garden equipment and supplies dealers (+3.1 percent m-o-m).
Excluding motor vehicle and parts dealers, retail sales fell 0.5 percent m-o-m in December. Excluding gasoline stations, retail sales increased 0.4 percent m-o-m.
In y-o-y terms, Canadian retail sales surged 1.7 percent in December, following an unrevised 0.5 percent rise in November.
Retail sales declined 0.5 percent y-o-y in the fourth quarter of 2018, following a 0.7 percent y-o-y advance in the third quarter.
For the full 2018, retail sales rose 2.7 percent y-o-y.

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
